SCS Extractor for Mac

[Dale]

Would it be possible to convert the exctractor to mac as I can't seem to be able to edit anything or open any .scs mods or files on my mac.
This would be great if it was possible, or even if someone has a way, I do have a windows PC but that would mean copying files to and from the pc just to edit and get them correct.

Much appreciated.

Unless things have changed drastically since I knew anyone with a Mac, as far as I know PC files don't work on Macs. That is why ETS2 never worked on Macs until SCS wrote a Mac version.

If SCS did make a Mac version of the SCS Extractor you could make your own versions for all the text based mods, such as the ones that modify the economy, truck physics, etc., IF the text layout of the files in question are the same as the PC text files. However, I would think that model based mods aren't going to work without being converted to the Mac file format.

But I have been known to be wrong because I haven't kept up with technology for the last several years, and I admittedly know next to nothing about Macs. That is why I always say things like "Unless things have changed drastically since..." and "I think that...", because I base a lot of my posts on the information I know, which at times is old school as compared to now days.

The mods I have active work fine, I just can't edit the text based ones because there is no app that will extract them or let me open them to view the files.

They never made one for Linux either. I use the windows exe with Wine, which should work for MacOSX as well.
